Djokovic's brother confirms he will play Rome, Madrid, Wimbledon and French Open

In an interview with Serbian media, Djordje Djokovic let slip that his sibling is planning on making appearances at two of the three remaining Grand Slams this year, as well as at least two more Masters.

According to his brother, he is eyeing appearances at the Italian Open and Madrid Open, and also plans to play at Roland Garros and Wimbledon in the summer after struggling with a lack of top-level matches. Speaking to Serbian outlet, Alo, Djordje said:

"He lacks the continuity of matches and tournaments, to be on the field. I hope that he will continue with great games, and Belgrade and Monte Carlo are tournaments where he is preparing for Roland Garros and Wimbledon."

He further said:

"Until the last moment, he did not know if he would be able to play, but fortunately, he will also appear in Paris, Rome, London, Madrid. The ATP is not asked so much here, but the rules are followed from state to state."

His appearances in Paris and Rome were once in doubt, but the governments of both France and Italy have since either relaxed their entry rules for unvaccinated travellers or confirmed specifically that the tennis star will be allowed to enter and compete in their countries.
